Unfortunately, because we are the host nation of the UN, the visa is probably diplomatic in nature, all of them. ( or maybe sneak off few of the plane as spy's) I say we ship the UN out. If the converstations are truly that sensative, maybe they'ld meet somewhere else. Dunno. Thinking it all out, the disguise of diplomats seems likely. |

I assume the plane is going to land at JFK, and that it'll sit out on the tarmac, away from the terminals, after His Excellency or whatever he calls himself is ferried off by a limo which drives up to the plane. I don't see what the 25 bozos sitting on the plane can see out of of a 12" x 6" window that they couldn't see from a terminal or other public area of the airport. I also further assume that some guys from the FBI will probably be hanging out around the plane, to provide 2-way security--keeping people away, and keeping this clown's entourage on the plane.
Commercial aircraft are pretty well insulated (after all, a lot of times the ambient air temp is less than -100* F at 35,000'). The noise coming out of an engine under full takeoff power can deafen you on the ground, but on the plane, even if you're sitting right next to the exhaust, you hardly hear it. I would imagine that electronic eavesdropping isn't going to get them much.

The Feds. know more then you think! It's no stroke of luck we have not been hit again. I don't think it's from lack of effort on the terrorist part. You have to give some credit where it's due, even if you don't appreciate it.
